It's been two days after I saw my son. When I called to my grandparents and parents, they was really surprised and gave their congraturation to me.

Yesterday my father went to '작명소 (naming center)'. I quess my friends in the West may be unfamilier to it. Lots of Korean believe one's fate can be estimated by their birth year, day and time. And, we also regard their name affects on their destiny. So, we give one's name with something special technique (I don't know how they do). Therefore, we pay some money to get a good name for their descendants. Anyway, my father visited naming center and called me with four candidates, '도윤', '성윤', '시우' and '준우'. I picked '도윤' because it is easily pronounced, and the spell in English is also easy, 'daw-yoon'. I also expected that my son can use his English name as 'Dawn'. What do you think about the name? Is it usually used for someone's name in your region?
